Don’t speed through your interview. Slow down and be methodical in your answers. It’s okay to take your time if you answer questions intelligently.

Dress to Impress

Unless you’ve been instructed otherwise, dress as professionally as possible. Wear the clothes that match the position you want to achieve in your career; it will show Recruiters you are ambitious.

A good rule to follow is to dress one level above the normal daily attire for the position you’re interested in.

Don’t Leave Home Without It

There are some items you should always bring with you to your interview.

Resume – Even if you’ve already submitted your resume, it’s a good idea to bring another copy to the interview. You’ll look prepared and organized, a sought-after attribute in every profession.

References – These will always be required, so having a current list on hand is a good idea. Have a brief description of your relationship with each of the references and be prepared to leave the document with the employer or Recruiter.

Social Insurance Number – If all goes well, the company or agency will need your Social Insurance Number in order to get you on the job.
